Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 3 cups cooked chicken bite-size pieces
  • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables peas, carrots, corn, broccoli
  • 1 10.5-ounce can condensed cream of chicken soup undiluted
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth ready to use
  • 1 1/4 cups whole milk cold, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder measured
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme measured
Biscuit Topping
  • 1 11.36-ounce package Red Lobster Cheddar Bay biscuit mix dry mix portion
  • 1 packet garlic-herb seasoning from package
  • 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

Equipment

  • 9-By-13-Inch Baking Dish
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Medium Mixing Bowl
  • whisk
  • Silicone Spatula
  • Pastry Brush

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 375°F with a rack in the center.
  2. Whisk the cream of chicken soup, broth, 1/2 cup milk, garlic powder, black pepper, and thyme in a large bowl.
  3. Fold in the cooked chicken and frozen mixed vegetables. Spread the filling evenly in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  4. Reserve the garlic-herb seasoning packet. Stir the biscuit mix, remaining 3/4 cup milk, and cheddar in a medium bowl just until no dry pockets remain.
  5. Drop the thick batter over the filling in 10 to 12 rough mounds, leaving small gaps between them.
  6. Bake uncovered for 25 minutes.
  7. Continue baking for 10 to 15 minutes, until the filling bubbles through the center gaps and the biscuit centers reach about 200°F. Stir the seasoning packet into the melted butter and brush it over the hot biscuits.
  8. Rest the casserole for 10 minutes before serving so the sauce can thicken.

Notes

Refrigerate leftovers for up to 4 days or freeze baked portions for up to 2 months, though the biscuit topping will soften. For make-ahead preparation, refrigerate the filling for up to 24 hours and mix the biscuit topping just before baking; cold filling may require 5 to 10 extra minutes.
